I just loved Bob. He loved coming to the flea market to buy movies. I got close with him and he reminded me of my dad. I always gave him things from my booth. We would buy him cupcakes on his birthday, give him cards and gift cards for pizza. One day he was feeling down and I said Bob we all love you and are here for you and he started crying. I will forever cherish the memories I have with him through the years. Rest in heaven sweet man.

Bob was my parents’ neighbor. He would occasionally come over and chat on the porch. That last visit was one of the best we’ve ever had. I will miss you, Bob. You were one of a kind. We are blessed to have known you as many years as we did. ❤️
